Yes, that’s an OPEN sign just installed in front of Gallery Number One!! Officially open this weekend: Friday, Saturday& Sunday from 12:00-5:00. This is our photographer John Abisamra. You can see his beautiful work along with Stephanie Mason’s fish prints, and my watercolors. I’ll be working Saturday. Stop by! This is a soft opening…grand opening to be announced. 1 Main Street, Rockport.

I love these sculptures. The artist is so talented and uses only recycled materials.


All local artists are showing their great work. When visiting the show, the museum is terrific and worth the time to take a tour.
Thank you
With spring and Easter are just around the corner. Come on down to Arts Abound, 21 C Lexington Avenue, Magnolia, Gloucester, MA, shop local thank you

This talented artist uses all recycled materials to make these great sculptures.

From Beth Welin, Director at the Manchester Historical Museum:
Just got confirmation from the Board of Health that we can have our normal refreshments. The museum will provide drinks (wine and seltzer), and I have a plea out to the board for someone to arrange for cheese and crackers. If you all would be willing to bring something to share, that will make the reception extra nice. Hope to see you all there.

Shop local, thank you
Gloucester’s very talented artist Amy Kerr sent me the next couple of events for the I Am More Project.
Dear I Am More subjects,
I’m starting to prep for the next exhibit at South Shore Plaza in Braintree (flyer attached). We’re going to be taking down Holyoke and putting up SSP in one day, so the dates to see the exhibit are March 14-April 9.

Because there are now 40 of you, and an exhibit with the display panels can only include 20, I’m going to be mixing you up at each location. This will be based on people who live closest to the exhibit, and as much diversity as possible in the subject matter. You have all been included in one of the last two exhibits at Northshore and Holyoke, so the South Shore Plaza exhibit will include:
We are able to hang portraits simultaneously in locations that do not require the panels, so if you know of schools, libraries, non-profits, businesses, healthcare facilities who might host a display of 1-20 portraits that you could help facilitate, let me know.
Upcoming press includes the April issue of Northshore Magazine, and it sounds like Fox 25 might be doing a piece from the South Shore Plaza exhibit.
Enjoy these last cold days of winter!
Thank you Amy Kerr
